So I was lazy the other night and just bought the pre-made skewers (pictured above with couscous and garlic-sauteed haricots verts) at Fairway.
But I'd like to make my own version on a for-real grill this summer, so if anyone has a particularly spectacular recipe (marinade, etc) would love to hear it!
I spotted these earrings on the mannequins in the window of Bebe the other day and did a little whip-around, because they're crazy. I mean, I'm a fan of big jewelry, but these go beyond statement earrings (they hit below the clavicle), and head straight into I-totally-couldn't-pull-this-off territory.
What do you think? Are these too much...or just enough?

Such a fun day yesterday: I shot a Mother's Day collaboration between DIGS and master craftress Meg Allan Cole at the BetterTV studios (not for BetterTV, just at the very pretty studio, which you can see behind us).
Wait until you see what she helped me whip up (I'll post the video next week): it's not only adorable, it's my-kinda-easy (by which I mean actually easy, not 'oh, anyone can totally make one of these...if they happen to have a fully-stocked crafting closet and a mean whipstitch' easy).
Some of my favorite MAC projects:
First, how cool is this?! (It's a Lilly Pulitzer original drawing from last night's Spring/Summer event.)
While we're talking Lilly, I absolutely need to show you this in case you're in search of a present for a special kind of girl: it's a seashell pendant on one side...and a bottle-opener on the other. I especially love this as a bachelorette gift for a bride who's heading somewhere tropical on her honeymoon: you have limited space in your luggage to cart around jewelry, so why not bring along something that's pretty and functional? And, let's face it, just plain awesome.
